Neural networks have found application within the Wave Digital Filters (WDFs) framework as data-driven input-output blocks for modeling single one-port or multi-port nonlinear devices in circuit systems. However, traditional neural networks lack predictable bounds for their output derivatives, essential to ensure convergence when simulating circuits with multiple nonlinear elements using fixed-point iterative methods, e.g., the Scattering Iterative Method (SIM). In this study, we address such issue by employing Lipschitz-bounded neural networks for regressing nonlinear WD scattering relations of one-port nonlinearities.
